What is a Specific Use Permit in McKinney and when do I need one?

A Specific Use Permit (SUP) is required whenever Table 2-26: Table of Uses marks your specific use "S" in your zoning district (UDC Sec. 203C.3). An SUP is approved by City Council, generally after a Planning and Zoning Commission recommendation, and continues to be subject to all other applicable Code requirements once granted. SUPs approved before the November 15, 2022 adoption of the Unified Development Code remain in effect; if a use no longer requires an SUP under the current Table 2-26, the City Council may void the old SUP on request following notice and a public hearing (Sec. 106). Start by confirming the zoning district through the city's zoning GIS layer or the Planning Department at 972-547-2000. This pack covers incorporated McKinney only; the ETJ and unincorporated Collin County have no municipal zoning.
